Help Identifying Species

[diru97]

Hello Everyone,

I have a new addition to my flock (peachfaced lovebirds, african grey, and cuban amazon) but have no idea of what kind of conure or hybrid it is. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You

Hi there, and welcome to the forum.

My guess would be either a Jenday conure, a very young Sun Conure or perhaps a cross between the 2.

But I'm confident more conure enthusiasts will be able to help you.

Yep!

That is a baby Jenday.

Thank you so much JerseyWendy and Birdman666.

so Jendays also have yellow in their wings?

Looks just like any Jenday I've ever seen. Beautiful bird!!

They do when they are babies. Look at all the green on this one's head, and other areas. This one is obviously a juvenile.

Yup, cute baby, feather still transmogrifying to the final coloring!

It's a baby Sun (Jenday) Conure. They are very loud, but fun and cuddly birds. Congratulations and good luck with him!

My guess is a Sunday - hybrid between the two. Coloration of a jenday but the colors of a sun coming out in the wings.

I haven't seen jendays with yellow in their wings, which is why I'm saying hybrid.
